Walmart, Incest, Bail, and Kickboxing | Durham News

Description

In 2011, Durham flooded with job seekers desperate for work at a new Walmart Supercenter—many qualified, many unemployed. A century earlier, in 1926, Archie Benson was arrested for assault on his father and incest with his mother and sister, but his mother claimed he was framed to seize her crops and escape abuse. In 1976, Wake County Senator Bobby L. Barker was denied bail after defying court orders to release records from his shuttered electronics firm, even as he complained of chest pains. And in 1992, Durham’s Terry McAdoo, a national kickboxing champion, trained intensely for the North American Championship.
